Forum Updates and DDoS attack

[Master Chief]

Did we use lose seven hours of posts? At 12pm untie today, looks like site was hacked? And some of my posts from this morning are gone.

Yes. Seemed like a hack.

But the guardians of our electronic frontiers restored our sovereignty with diligence and determination. Delhi is getting used to trying and failing.

this was the hacked message I saw when trying to access the website. hope nobody pressed the blue button...

imagine admins restored the website to an earlier saved version, explaining the lost posts.

Minor inconvenience. Appears around 30 of my posts from last night my TZ have been lost.

One issue that keeps coming up with some of the African air forces is there simply isn't enough images, period, for a good posting.

I may need to start combing a couple of countries for future thread contributions.

After last post of mine, several additional posts between @Fatman17 and myself pertaining to US life, movies, etc. are gone.

Yes we were hacked but have come back. Lost a little of the last 48 hours, we will keep you posted.

Our enemies want us gone, think about recent events.

Thanks for bringing the website back. Very good to hear there are good backups of the site so that only 1 days posts are affected.

Good job admins!!

Best I can figure (a benefit from having a low post count!) is about 30 posts total over about 4 threads are gone. In the one thread, Oscar replied to mine and his too is gone.

So yup, easily several hours worth and who knows the total count of posts gone.
